5.2 Content localization

#Overview

Hygraph allows having different locales for your content. We want part of the content of our e-commerce to be in two languages: English & Spanish. This is why we selected the Localize field checkbox for some of our fields during schema creation.

The reason why we've placed this into a separate section is that before we can actually write the localized content, we need to add a new locale to our project.

We'll use this lesson to add our new locale and to write the localized content.

#Add a locale

Adding a locale in Hygraph is really easy. First we need to navigate to Project settings > General > Locales. There, we'll see our default locale, which is English.

In this case we want to add Spanish, so we'll then use the dropdown menu to select Spanish from the list. We can also start typing the word to start filtering values. Selecting Spanish will autocomplete the API ID field.

Finally, we'll click Add, and the new locale will be added to our project.

#Localized content

Now that a new locale has been added to our project, we are ready to start adding localized content to our content entries.

#Summer campaign

Our Summer campaign landing page has a localized title and also contains components that have localized fields. We'll add the Spanish localization with the following localized information:

Stripes > Call to Action > Body¡Las rebajas de verano están en pleno apogeo! ¡Vea las increíbles ofertas de verano que enumeramos a continuación!
Stripes > Product grid > HeadlineRopa de verano

#Products

Let's repeat the process for some of our products. We'll go into each of these product entries in the content editor, add the Spanish locale, and type in the following translations:
